The game plan was ALWAYS to break up Iraq, specifically the Northern 'Kurd' region gaining more autonomy... bypass the Iraqi Government when selling it's OIL.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------A Fractured Iraq Should Benefit Genel Energy

Summary•The ISIL seizure of Mosul and the Peshmerga takeover of Kirkuk signify the continued factionalization of Iraq. •This creates a unique opportunity for the Iraqi Kurds to gain greater autonomy from the Iraqi central government. •Such autonomy will enable enhanced profits on the export of Kurdish oil which is currently sold on the domestic market for a 30-40% discount to international prices. •Genel Energy remains well-capitalized and is poised to grow production and profitability significantly. •The company is a strong partner of the Kurdistan Regional Government and should benefit tremendously from greater Kurdish autonomy in Iraq.

The ISIS rebel forces in Iraq have so far avoided a confrontation with Kurdish forces, which are said to be much better organised than their Iraqi equivalents.

Iraq might also realise that it needs a friend in the north. Iraq’s oil minister, Abdul Kareem Luaibi, said at yesterday’s Opec meeting that the uprising could increase the chances of the Iraqi government agreeing an oil export deal with Kurdistan.''

The battles raging across northern Iraq could end up benefiting the Western oil companies operating in the Kurdistan region, industry executives claimed last night.

In the short term, the current instability is making day-to-day work on the oilfields difficult for those closer to the fighting. But senior Western executives in the autonomous region said the decisive action of the Iraqi Kurdish army to take control of the northern oil city of Kirkuk would strengthen its hand in critical negotiations with Baghdad over its large oil reserves.

Kurdistan wants to be allowed to sell its oil directly abroad, bypassing the Iraqi system. The Iraqi president Nouri al-Maliki has decreed this illegal. The two-year spat escalated last month when Kurdistan started exporting oil directly from its newly built pipeline to Turkey.

---------------------------------I would think The Kurds have more of chance of creating their own state in the near future than any 'Islamist' movement! But hey boys... keep fighting that Jihad! A jihad for Israel and Zionisms benefit!!!

Weekend Edition June 20-22, 2014Splitting up IraqIt’s all for Israelby MIKE WHITNEY

Excerpts:

“It is no longer plausible to argue that ISIS was a result of unintentional screw ups by the US. It is a clear part of a US strategy to break up the Iran-Iraq-Syria-Hezbollah alliance. Now that strategy may prove to be a total failure and end up backfiring, but make no mistake, ISIS IS the strategy.”

- Lysander, Comments line, Moon of Alabama...They want to partition the country consistent with an Israeli plan that was concocted more than three decades ago. The plan was the brainstorm of Oded Yinon who saw Iraq as a serious threat to Israel’s hegemonic aspirations, so he cooked up a plan to remedy the problem....The only reason to dissolve Iraq, is Israel. Israel does not want a unified Iraq. Israel does not want an Iraq that can stand on its own two feet. Israel wants to make sure that Iraq never remerges as a regional power. And there’s only one way to achieve that goal, that is, to follow Yinon’s prescription of “breaking up Iraq …along ethnic/religious lines …so, three (or more) states will exist around the three major cities: Basra, Baghdad and Mosul."

This is the blueprint the Obama administration is following. The US gains nothing from this plan. It’s all for Israel.

I don't think I'll ever forget the day when the Rockefeller-connected psychiatrist came over to my place and brought the DVD of Daniel Day Lewis' then new film "There Will Be Blood". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There_Will_Be_Blood

23 June - Jihadism and the Petroleum Industryby Thierry Meyssan While the Western media portray the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant as a group of jihadists reciting the Qur’an, the ISIL has started the oil war in Iraq. With the help of Israel, it has cut off Syria’s supply and guaranteed the theft of oil from Kirkuk by the local government of Kurdistan. The sale will be assured by Aramco who will camouflage this diversion as increased "Saudi" production...http://www.voltairenet.org/article184382.html

For months it was in the news that 400 Britons had joined the jihadis in Syria. Foreign Secretary William Hague himself said so. However, the number of these British jihadis is much larger and it has been revealed that some of them were trained to be Sunni jihadists by a jihad-seeking Saudi mullah in a British mosque under the watchful eyes of the MI6.
